[b][color=#333333]KIT RICHARDSON :[/color][/b]
[color=#333333]This will be the launch of Kit's EP 'Love Songs in Age'. Kit was a "highlight" of last year's Camden Crawl, labelled "bewilderingly diverse" by Artrocker, and voted "ridiculous" by most of her band members. She is so excited about this launch that she might wee.[/color]

[color=#333333][b]MAYFLYS :[/b]
Mayflys are fronted by french-born Aurelie Konter, whose voice, shaped by her travels around the world, gives Mayflys one of their unique sounds. Having graced the stage of 2000 Trees, and sessioned last year on BBC4, they're launching their new double A side along with a video this fine evening...[/color]

[b][color=#333333]BETHIA BEADMAN:[/color][/b]
[i]“With a life that includes studying Sanskrit, exotic dancing and stints playing music with Courtney Love and Circulus, Bethia Beadman is a magazine editor’s dream. (But) her music eclipses her back story. Ethereal yet visceral, she draws you into her world. One of the best unsung artists around”[/i]

Wow, Bethia Beadman agreed to support us! She was Courtney Love's keys player in Hole for years and now has her own band.

I WANT TO HEAR MORE!!! Seriously. You massive tease, Nige Sounds frickin' brilliant from that clip. I've just played it about five times in a row.

Can't make the gig. So I can simply ask - beg - that you someday bring this outfit up to Manchester. Pretty please. Sugar on top. The works.

PS: have just plugged this on Twitter amongst various BC'ers and some mates of mine down south.

Paul, you're a gem, thank you! We are filming the full vid right now, last night and tonight, you'll see it in the next few weeks hopefully

It would be great to play Manchester! Any suitable venues and/or promoters you know of mate?

Thanks so much for plugging it for us, when we get to Manchester I'll buy you a pint or three man!

Cheers x

No probs Nige! I'm genuinely happy to show support. Not just as a fellow BC'er, but because I [i]really[/i] like what you're doing with this band - it's just what I look for in new music and Kit's voice is sublime.

I used to be in the thick of Manchester's music scene - I wrote a weekly clubs/gigs column for the Manchester Evening News between around 1995-2000 (great times!). I've since lost touch with a lot of the promoters who used to be on the scene, so I can't recommend any specific people to speak with. But I still keep an ear to the ground, so to speak.

Anyway, my recommendations for possible venues - thinking about the music you play and the types of punters who'll love it - are as follows (NB: all of these venues are located centrally, have great reputations for good music and are 99% certified d*ckhead free).

[url="http://www.nightnday.org/"][b]Night & Day Cafe[/b][/url]
A local institution. Always busy. THE place for new bands to get noticed (it was Elbow's regular haunt before they went stratospheric). Crowd very music-savvy.

[url="http://www.thisisgorilla.com/"][b]Gorilla[/b][/url]
Used to be called the Green Room, which itself was a popular venue for all kinds of live performance. It's recently re-opened and is doing very well - I walk past it nightly and it's always busy with a good roster of live music. I've yet to go to a gig there myself, but I'd wager the sound system is top notch

[url="http://thecastlehotel.info/"][b]The Castle[/b][/url]
Looks like a typical historic pub from the outside, but this little gem has long been a big feature on the Manchester live scene. Similar crowd to Night & Day Cafe (above) - a creative and open-minded crowd. Steeped in history and serves fantastic beer. Small and cosy but punches well above its size.

[url="http://bandonthewall.org/"][b]Band on the Wall[/b][/url]
One of my favourite places. A truly amazing sound system. Has a reputation as a home of jazz, reggae and world music, but you'll find all sorts of bands playing here. Might not be as ideally suited as those already mentioned, but well worth a look.

[url="http://www.manchesteracademy.net/"][b]Manchester Academy[/b][/url]
THE student gig venue in the city - the place where all of the major touring bands stop off. [i]However...[/i] there's a smaller venue upstairs called 'Academy 2' that might be well-suited, especially if you can coincide with a new bands showcase or maybe even pitch yourselves as a support act for the main venue. It's run (very successfully) by the University so the promoter should be fairly well organised.

Hope that helps tempt you oop north sometime!

[xilddx]

Mate this is wickid! I'll talk to the band about it. BRX also gave me a bunch of stuff for Notts so hopefully we will get out of town this year!

Paul, I really really appreciate your taking the time to do that, thank you so much!

[bobbass4k]

I think I know a promoter in York if you're interested, big student town, there's a couple of mediumish venues and plenty of big pubs that put on gigs.

[xilddx]

Hey Bob, thanks mate! I'll let you know man Cheers!

[fumps]

Nige
If you come up to a place like York/Manchester I will be there in a shot mate with many friends in tow !!!!

I'd love to come down to that London place & see the band as I am a huge fan mate, unfortunately being a dad & other commitments make stuff like this almost impossible at times......I hope you all have an amazing night !!!

Awesome, Gav! I'll see what we can do.

And thanks so much mate, it should be an amazing night!

I love Sam's tasteful carefully crafted parts, my kind of guitarist.
